SEASONAL PREVENTATIVE MEASURES

Fall

• Avoid snow molds by mowing until the grass stops growing in the fall and cutting it a little shorter than normal on the last mowing to 2 ½ ".
• Avoid mid-fall nitrogen applications that delay dormancy.

Winter

• Use sand or cat box filler as a substitute for deicing salt.
• Prevent deep piling of snow along walks and driveways.

Spring

• Rake away dead grass.
• Reseed thinned or bare areas when soil is well drained and warm.

Water heavily to try to wash away salt.
